And that right there is pretty much exactly how I ended up on a three month blog break. I'm trying very hard - and very consciously - to keep the pressure off now that I'm back. I post when I have something I want to post, and don't when I don't. Much lower stress this way :).

I think I know what you mean....I used to photograph barns, but I don't find them so interesting anymore. Of course, I believe I photographed nearly every one in two counties! Pressure is no fun and photography should be fun, IMO.

Oh wow.. I hear ya! I love your posts but I agree this should be fun with no struggle or pressure (think that's a note to self!) I have personally considered a blog break but I immediately think of how much I'd miss the interaction. On a side note , I'm in love with building that has the rounded corners!!

I"m not sure why, but I think this happens to a lot of us in the summer.I for one, know I have not had much to say lately, but I have been out with my camera, so I'll just let the photos do the "talking" for a while. xo.

Well, I do enjoy the water towers..even if I am not sure why...but then I love your non-water tower pics too, so I will survive if you stop them.And just sob quietly for a few moments..in the corner...

You know somtimes you need to digest a little. Between our beach time and our Idaho trip I shot over a 1000 pics plus numerous other cell phone shots. My mind is still trying to deal with those and I'm not wanting to worry about more right now.

You are too intellectually honest, people don't harangue themselves, if Toonman needs a good haranguing, you are the woman to do it.

My blog roll is totally messed up. I had to go look for old emails to find you.

Since I am catching up, I have seen your blog for the 4th before I read this one. Actually, quite fun sometimes. I won't give it away because I am sure everyone else will view in the correct order :). I love your towers and your photos...so keep them coming, Daryl! You're doing a grand job!!!

I know exactly what you mean about over doing something, I used to love shopping..after a trip to Singapore where there are about a zillion shops that you just have to see, I've never shopped the same again..I can't tell you how relieved P is haha!
